I hate when players play everday and I still get a email saying that they are upset about their playing time.

Especially when the player is injured! The guy is walking around in a cast and its somehow your fault hes not getting playing time? Dont break your damn league and Ill leave you in the lineup, smart guy.

Or players who sign contracts to be backups, yet are still mad they arent playing everyday. Even if I give them 2 starts a week they still complain, and "upset the locker room."

I hate it when

1. relievers get sent down to minors because of a lack of stamina

2. closers complaining about their playing time. what kind of junk is that? He's a closer, not an ace

3. the fact that relievers also seem to be worse players beacuse of the stupid stamina, which is basically the reason of 1.

4. the fact that just about every player aged 30 above gets crappy because of stupid spring training

EDIT: Added a 4 and a 3. put a question mark after the word that, added a bit

Definately hate that.

Also, I just remembered another thing. I hate how sometimes when you try to throw out a runner at third base or at home and the third baseman or catcher is standing 10 feet away from the bag! AND furthermore, if he wasn't you could've easily gotten the runner out.

When you see a cpu fielder running after a popup, taking 10 seconds to cover 20 feet of ground, then suddenly seeing him cover the remaining 10 feet and make a lunging catch all in about 1/3 of a second.

When the cpu first baseman runs 10 feet away from the bag, cuts off the second basemen to field the ball on a dead run, and is still able to stop, and run back to the bag and beat Juan Pierre there by 10 feet.

The fact that 2/3s of potential double play grounders end up with my second baseman doing a summersalt and the ball rolling around at this feet. All the while my runners manage to break up about 2 DPs per an entire season.

When I catch a CPU player rounding a base too far after cutting off a throw from the outfield, and a simple flip of the ball will have him nailed, yet I still have to wait 2 seconds for the throw meter to power up and my player to go through a full motion to throw the ball 3 feet.

How I cant hit a pitch that is an inch outside of the strike zone. Time the swing perfect, aim in the perfect zone, but the ball is an inch low so my guy swings through it. Literally THROUGH it, according to the replay.

How the computer throws 3-0 sliders or 3-1 splitters, even if my pitcher is batting.

How only one defender will go after the ball at a time. What happened to the shortstop running out, and the LF charging in to call him off? If you hit a blooper over the infield, and an infielder starts to chase it, you know its going to be caught, because the infielder only runs out to make the catch if its guaranteed. Even if hes 30 feet into the outfield when he does it, and makes the catch on the dead run. Most times the infielder will make the catch like 5 feet from the leftfielder who hadnt moved a step since the ball was hit.

How the corner infielders are able to shuffle 10 feet in either direction to catch bullets off the bat. Or how you can absolutely hit a pea of a line drive, destined for the rightfield corner, except that the first baseman still has the reactions to take like 3 steps and make a jumping catch in about 1/5 of a second.

How the ball is hit about 5 feet from the leftfielder, but for whatever reason the CPU gives you control of the CENTERfielder, only for you to realize this after youve take 5 steps in the wrong direction, and then watching it fall 2 feet from the leftfield who still hasnt taken a step.

Dude you so posted about everything that I was going to say. My least favorite is a foul ball first base side and the right fielder and second baseman don't move at all eventhough they would likely have better abilities to catch the ball!

When your CF or the cpu's CF is perfectly lined up with the mound so when they go to make a throw to the plate the ball hits the back of the mound and bounces 20 feet over the catcher's head. It rarely happens but it's still annoying.

I hate it when the ball is hit to the outfield and the CPU changes the fielder automatically to the fielder in the opposite field and turns a routine fly ball out into a roll the wall inside-the-park home run.
